- Montreal Future Mega Projects 2018-2030: Canada's Hidden Futuristic City
When we think to about a canadian city,we thinkl mostly about Toronto or Vancouver. But Montreal rarely comes to our mind.
It,s because Monrtreal is not known to be a powerful city like Toronto. Did you know that once upon a time,Montreal was the most powerful economical city in Canada. But the sepraratism movement from Quebecers destroyed the economy of the city.
Montreal is also known for the NHL team : Les canadiens de Montréal.
Montreal is the most populous municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec and the second-most populous municipality in Canada. Montreal's metropolitan area had a population of 4,098,927
Montreal's economy
In four of the past eight months, the regional unemployment rate has been below six per cent - something that has never happened
It’s not just that fewer Montrealers are actively looking for work. The regional gross domestic product (GDP), the strongest indicator of economic health, rose by 3.5 per cent in 2017. And while foreign direct investment across Canada declined in 2017, it was up 50 per cent in the Montreal region, reaching more than $2 billion.
For the first time in decades, Montreal’s economy is hot.
Montreal continues to establish itself as a worldwide leader in A.I/Tech and has been called the Silicon Valley of the north. Investments from Thales, Facebook, Microsoft, DeepMind and so forth. In addition to A.I/Tech, Montreal also saw huge investments in the gaming industry, aerospace and sciences, which are strong cards Montreal is known for. Montreal is also a higher education city, which plays a key role in investments from companies and universities. The future is bright for Montreal, and we have and will become a world leader in tech, health, aerospace and green energies.
Tourism
With the 375th anniversary, low Canadian dollar and more global recognition, Montreal has hit the highest number of tourists since Expo 67, with 11.2 million tourists visiting this beautiful city in 2017.
Here are Montreal's future mega projects that will change the city.
1- Skyscrapers and building:
Montreal is building a lot of new and beautiful skyscrapers that will change Montreal's skyline forever and for the best.
2- Royalmount mega mall:
The Royalmount Centre, a project that would cover 2.5 million square feet - more square footage than all the space in the Empire State Building - was unveiled Monday afternoon.
The project's promoter says the centre will cater to everyone. It will feature an entertainment venue, restaurants, stores and businesses.
The plans also include multiple entrances and exits, away from the highways.
There would also be a shuttle service on site, linking people to the future light rail system and the Trudeau International Airport.
One of the biggest malls in the world will come to Montreal.
3- Future public transport systems
CDPQ Infra, a subsidiary of Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, launched construction of the most ambitious electric public transit infrastructure since the Montreal metro 50 years ago. The Réseau électrique métropolitain (REM) is expected to have 27 stations and extend 67 km in the metropolis and its immediate suburbs. His promises are great: he will be active 20 hours a day, from 5 am to 1 am, and could carry up to 150 000 people daily from its first year of operation, according to forecasts of the Caisse de dépôt. If the timetable is respected, the first EMR trains will be put into service in 2021.
Montreal is also planning a hyperloop line that will connect Montreal to Toronto in 2030.
4-Airport Montréal-Trudeau expansion
The project involves the expansion of the landing stage, the construction of a REM station and the creation of a new terminal. More than 18.2 million passengers passed through Montreal-Trudeau Airport last year, an increase of 9.5%.
The first phase, which will run for five years, will cost $ 2.5 billion. That's almost the same amount as it has invested in Montreal-Trudeau over the last 20 years.
5- Nouveau Pont Champlain or new Champlain Bridge
Since 2015, a new $4.2 billion bridge, "the new Champlain Bridge" 3, bearing the same name, is under construction a few meters downstream from the old one. It was to be completed in 2018, but the opening is scheduled for no later than June 2019. It will replace the current bridge.
Montreal has found back its lost greatness.

In spite of some tough times, Montreal has always been a hip, world-class city.... Leonard Cohen said he was always suspicious of anyone who didn't like Montreal...
Yes, it was,it is now and it will be more world class in the future.
I watched the vid that said that
He's from Westmount, not Montreal.
hell ya
Buster Biloxi, do you even know where Westmount is? It’s a walk away from downtown Montreal! I live in Montreal and I’m farther away than Westmount is from downtown...
"The separatism hurt Montreal a lot", I wonder who pushed that on us... Economic powers are all about inclusivity until their domination is threatened. Then, what do you know, all the money and power go to Toronto. What happened to Montreal was punishment by the federal government and it was a targeted strike at the economy here. It's amazing we managed to survive and thrive
Edit: the way the video describes the ultra-modern soulless condo towers downtown as beautiful really shows how different lenses affect your judgment. Out of all the awesome neighborhoods to live in. This was made by an economist, not a citizen
I've been living in Toronto the last 3 years....In asia for 10 years prior to that. I'm finally moving back home and it looks like the timing is awesome. Montreal is really coming into its own...and it's a great time to be living there.
Salaries are lower, you're right...but you have more purchasing power in Montreal compared to Toronto.
Yes, you right. Montreal is finally becoming a developed city like those in Asia. Il était temps que cette ville avance.
I lived in New England. One day when I was 19, a friend and I decided to take a road trip to Montreal. We had a great time. I found the city more interesting than Toronto. Quebec City was beautiful and it felt more European than Canadian.
Because it is, Québec is distinct from Canada even if its part of it. I hope we'll see you again soon!
To me, Québec City feels more Canadian than Toronto does.
I am an American living in Florida. I have visited most major European cities at least once, including my second favorite, St. Petersburg. My first fave is Malaga, SP. I have been to every major city in the US for visits, business or pleasure. I have been to Toronto several times, VC once (I prefer Osaka), and as of last year Montreal once. I am going to Montreal again in April (and Q-City as well). After visiting Montreal last year, I decided to never take the trouble of going to Europe again. European cities have all lost their identities anyway. Montreal is my favorite place now. I would move there if I could bear the cold, and if old Justin would let me. Great city, FANTASTIC food, affordable, among the kindest people I have encountered, and artistically diverse as well as geographically gorgeous. What is not to like? Toronto is sterile. Not what I would call Canadian at all. More like a safe Chicago. Not very charming, albeit incredibly financially successful. Although, the island park is fantastic! Longue vie à Montréal!
A friend of mine also said that Toronto feels sterile to him. Not everywhere mind you, but many places in and around the city do seem sterile.
I'm from Toronto and I agree. But Montreal roads are shit! Like worst ever in all Canada. Aside from that love Montreal.
Thank you friend be welcome to Québec anytime soon!
I also think Toronto is very much like Chicago .. but Montreal has smth in common with Boston
Trust me, you get used to the cold fast and after a while you’ll start to actually like it! Plus, NOTHING beats a great summer after a harsh winter
And another favorite sentiment about Montreal is that former Montreal mayor, Jean Drapeau, said, "Let Toronto become Milan; Montreal will always be Rome".... and, that says it all....
Markas Dievovaikas Rome? Why because it’s outdated !?! 😂😂😂😂😫😫😫😫#ILoveToronto ♥️
great comment marcas!
So True!!!
@Jacqueline Filo : wow !! I've been living in Montreal all my life and never thought that Toronto was classy and Montreal, not. I wonder who hate the other city more ?? You're the hater here.
Jacqueline Filo Quebec is much better than Ontario
Hello from NYC! And thanks for your amazing video! Really well done!
i think the new Montreal will be 10 times cooler then the 60s one.
Yes indeed.
The prob is that many of these project will be cancelled and the council will not help these project. Montreal in 60s was one of the coolest and modern city in the world
With 10 times as little spirit and culture. Modern design is synonymous with safe, contemporary designs with good resale value
@@generalgrievous3066 ok you need to give me some of the projects that you think they will be abandoned!
Technet9090 Maybe the Royalmount project
Actually the Mirabel airport still exists and is still used for cargo planes. Lots of people work there everyday.
I was about to write the same comment :)
yup
I thought they completely demolished the thing?
@@towa5282 nope!
I see the airport every morning before going to work, and i see nothing but the control tower.
Montreal has always been a great city
It's a shithole with rude snotty people. They all hate English people.
@@randymoyan4754 Are your mommy and daddy still bumhurt little boy?
@@slytester5636 the only one " bumhurt" is you after taking it from behind from your "daddy" Lol. Now go stay in your corrupt Mafia run city and province. 😆

Just like the rest of Canada all hate French people.
montreal... beautiful city... clap clap👏
Yes it is.
We need another stanley cup
Yes we need one! Oui,nous avons besoin d'une autre coupe stanley !
Need to get rid of Bettman first and reduce the teams down to 22 again. Too many teams in this league.
No you don't. They already have 24 championships. If the Habs never won again nobody would care.
Athletes that earn millions a year to push around a puck or a ball is the root of what is wrong w society today, a beer delivery system
We’re about to win it 🥳
Great video! As a construction worker in my early 30's i can say becoming a tradesman was a good move we are booming.
REM will have a huge impact on the island... for better or worse.
Montreal (the city of festivals)😙😙😙😙😙😙
Great presentation of the dynamism of Montreal!
Do you plan to du an uptodate video to show where we are now with new images and projects?
Oui, bien sûr.
I ran away to Montreal in 1970 when I was 15. Somehow got a job. Survived the winter. Lived there a few times since, but have been living in Vancouver for the last almost 30 years. Montreal has my heart, but my body can’t handle the winter. It’s too urban for me, too; and no ocean. Got to have ocean. Coming from the East Coast, got to have ocean.
Let's make Montreal great again !
i love Montreal = j'aime Montreal
Do everything to expand and prosper the downtown core, build as many condos and tall corporate buildings as wanted because Montreal needs them, but don’t gentrify all the quaint neighbourhoods like Griffintown and Plateau.. they are the soul of the city! Thanks for the great video!
LOL. Griffintown has been gentrified beyond recognition and the Plateau is the 2nd most expensive neighborhood to live in in the city.
Thanks for this review, it's been needed for a long time.
Pretty cool, we do feel the vibe here
I like this. My city of Edmonton has recently seen a lot of big projects started or completed: Ice District, Stantec Tower (tallest building in Canada outside Toronto), and the new LRT line to Millwoods.👍
Michael Meloche I heard Québec city has green lighted a tower even taller then Stantec.
@@TokyoBalletReprise it'll never be built.
randy moyan They already started the construction.
Just found this video today ( agust 1st 2023), and I'm very happy since I move to Montreal at the end of the month. Thank you for all the informations. I can't believe that we'll be able to reach Toronto in 45 minutes in a few years !!! Just hope there will not be too much delay 😄
thanks for the reply! I am glad that you found this old video in 2023. Montreal has changed a lot since 2018.
Merci pour le commentaire. Je suis content que tu ai trouvé ce vieux video en 2023. Montréal a beaucoup changé depuis 2018.
Why can't we just restore neo-classical architecture? We should have a hybrid city (Neo Classical and Modern combined) Too much skyscrapper cut off the Royal Mount view on the St-Lawrence river.
Oh and if it is possible extend the underground city.
So many videos of Montreal. I haven’t been in Montreal for 20 years. It really looks beautiful now. And I live in St-Hubert South Shore. We have everything here. I don’t like having to search for parking just to buy a shirt.
Awesome man great work
Thank you.
Montreal has such an awesome charm to it. Over 1.7 million people can’t be wrong! ;) Cheers from Halifax!
more 4.3 millions
Quelle belle interprétation de notre histoire. Ce genre de discours rapide me donne envie de me révolter
Vous n'êtes pas seul dans vos sentiments. Le discours n'est pas seulement rapide, mais aussi ignorant et méprisant.

Une vidéo extrêmement intéressante et bien faite !
Montréal est une ville magnifique seulement, la limite de hauteur est un peu ridicule...

@@maxencefenoll9823 Montréal est merveilleuse.
Oui vraiment
I love seeing Mt-Royal from the river. That's why we have a height restriction. Montreal is the Mountain. The Mountain is Montreal.
Today is February 14th, 2021, It looks like it might be time to refresh this video. This is the second year of the pandemic and immigration to Montreal and the travel have ground to a halt and thousands of people have lost their jobs. I recently heard that the REM is behind schedule and will have fewer stops. As well, the condo market is slowing down while the housing market is on fire. Montreal will change forever along with other major cities around the world.
The REM will NOT have fewer stops. What is wrong with you?
@@busterbiloxi3833 Life is beginning to be normal.
@@busterbiloxi3833 - I heard about the REM having fewer stops....that's all. Why does this imply that something is wrong with me?
Montreal deserved to be the number 1 in Canada not Toronto, imagine a city half New York and half Paris :c
Blaming the separatist movement is sooooo easy... toronto's economy was booming even before the rise of the PQ... But I guess reading too much Globe and Mail, National Post and The Gazette really got to your brain eh...
PQ I 1976 Boosted the economy of ONTARIO :)
The blame is well deserved.
Toronto was a backwater compared to Montreal in 1967. It got a big boost as many left Montreal after the October crisis. After the 1976 election the floodgates were opened. I lived through it and exist today as a second class citizen (English) in Montreal.
@@Arational What the flying fuck ??? Anglophones in Montreal are second class citizens ? The most spoiled minority in this world is whimping once more... Go home, you're drunk !
thesilverblades he’s not entirely wrong though
@@yoda5280 yes he is
I lived in Montreal for almost my whole life and im not a huge of the Royalmount project mainly because of the traffic in that area..
It's very bad indeed. Lots of semi on the streets due to dollarama warehouse close by and the whole highway system would need to be improved
Isn't investing in malls counterintuitive in the first place?
One of the major reasons why Toronto got favored over Mtl was because the canadian market was shifting from UK and EU to the US and it appeared that Toronto was more well located for that matter. The politics didn't helped but it was more like the cherry than the sundae. To dig a bit deeper, one should never diminish the will of an oppressed people to be in full control of its will. I frankly don't think the future of Mtl would've been as great and sane as it is now.
The only oppressed people are the rest of Canada putting up with Quebec's incessant whining and complaining. Just fucking separate already. Please go and become the next Greece you pathetic leaches.
@@randymoyan4754
While the rest of Canada can forfeit its sovereignty and apply to become the US's 51st state.
Political comments in that vid are biased and unnecessary.
Lomer Taderoches In the video or in the comments? I haven’t seen anything political in the video...
The political and economic forces that would displace the Canadian economic centre from Montreal to Toronto were in place decades before the Parti Québécois even existed. The Parti Québécois was formed by intellectuals and university professors who peacefully propelled Québec forward at all levels, more accessible education, fairer economy, and made Québec and Montréal the truly modern and welcoming place it is today. They were very much aware that doing so would make independence seem less necessary but went ahead anyway. Democratic process through and through and although the party have become much less relevant now, they have led a deep transformation for the better and we can all (in Québec and Canada) be grateful to them for that.
HAHAHA WTF ARE YOUR TALKING ABOUT BY LINKING THE SEPARATIST MOVEMENT AND THE ECONOMIC GROWTH THIS IS SUCH A JOKE
nicee video
I l❤️ve my town, M❤️ntreal, number 1 in the world with its people French and English, we are so lucky to live in MTL (Montréal) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Montréal est également une ville francophone dans une province francophone. La seule région francophone en Amérique du Nord. La population du Québec est déterminée à protéger la langue française ainsi que la culture et les traditions qui sont les siennes. Montréal is also a city that is mainly a french city in a french province. This is the only area in North America where you have a majority of french population even if you can see some french cities in Canada no other province is mainly french.The population of Québec is determined to protect the french language, the culture and traditions that comes with it.
Montreal is the third oldest city in Canad. Trois-Rivieres is the second one.
Je faisais allusion aux grandes villes.
@@megaprojectsanddevelopments Vous avez dit city, pas grande ville donc ...
@nic joe c'est parce qu' en anglais, quand on dit 'city', nous parlons de grande ville. Si il avait dit 'town', alors il aura inclut trois riviere.
trois rivieres n est pas ce qu on appelle une ville
enrigue8 tu la clash
2:15 *The airport still exists, but the passenger terminal has been demolished. Mirabel airport is now mainly a cargo airport
great, I love my City. Montreal
I grew up in Montreal. The demolition horrifies me. The residential buildings, office blocks, shopping centre and airport all look alike. And all of that will be out of date by 2050 when people will lament that the old character was paved over rather than integrated. Horrible.
You obviously didn’t come and see for yourself... All the architecturally significant or historical buildings have been integrated to the new ones. It’s beautiful and that’s what makes Montreal different from Toronto.
Start by decently fixing the pot holes ... Re-doing the same streets year after year after year... Corruption at it's best.
2- Royalmount mega mall: any one know the tune to the song to the slide show of it sick as beat. love the vid bring on the future of buildings
Très beau projet faite et qui se poursuit à l'avenir de nos réseaux sociaux c'est une très belle continué de la ville de Montréal 👍😊
Merci pour ton gentil et aimable commentaire 😊!
Fait grand plaisir 😁😁
Speak English you heathens.
2034: Montreal becomes a megacity
Montréal was built by french is 1642, after Quebec city in 1608, Britain arrived in 1760 and never represented more than 25 % of the population of the island of Mtl
They should also be, less represented in the population if you ask me
@@1998bikeguy What we should do? We should simply do what the British did to the Acadiens, problem solved
@@1998bikeguy "I would suggest you look in the present and move on from the past" only works when it is good for you no? I would suggest you all to get the fuck out and let us live in peace without your presence, before someone forces it to happen, that won't be pretty either.
Also, where I live there is nothing but French speaking people, happily, I don't even like Montréal, this is one of the various reasons why.
@@lecoureurdesbois86 Do not threaten your compatriots. Who is "you all"? Anglophones? I hate to tell you this but you live on an English-majority continent. Montreal may be on an island, but it's still part of North America. You are a Canadian, whether you like it or not.
@@vivocanada Yes, that's true, and that's exactly why you should stay away and give us some peace on our land, not asking for much, but that's too much apparently.
Who are you to say "compatriot"? To me you're simply the "ennemy".
Oh, great!... More concrete slabs. I can barely wait.
Good thing to mention that Montreal lost; The Bank Of Montreal moved its head quarters to Toronto and they built what is still today the tallest building in Canada.
Pretty good but one big mistake; the 70's political events could have not help for the economy but the St-Lawrence seaway opening had a much more important impact. You only have to examine the excellent photos shown at the beginning of the clip. Look the trains and the warehouses in the west part of the city and close to the port. Montreal was the economic link between the Canada and the world. The larger part of Canadian goods , minerals and cereals transited by Montreal. Banks, railroads, customs, brookers had their most important facility in Montreal.
The opening of the seaway to the great lakes put an end to the first economic advantage to the city.
Il y a l'histoire économique d'un pays et son histoire politique. Je suis d'accord avec vous. La réalité est souvent plus complexe que les biais de pensées et les préjugés que nous entretenons. C'est une des erreurs de ce petit film sur Montréal d'avoir presque tout expliqué par le biais politique l'émergence de Toronto comme capital économique du Canada. Même si le Québec eut été une province 100 % anglophone, Toronto serait quand même aujourd'hui la capitale économique du Canada. Pour le reste, l'économie change. Les paradigmes socio-économiques sont aussi en train de changer : dimension des villes, naturalisation des espaces urbains, plus grande convivialité sociale, moyens de transport, etc. On verra. Le visage des villes pourrait être assez différent dans 100 ans. Je ne suis pas urbaniste, alors j'en ai une vision très limitée.
If you do a video like this of the past present and future of Toronto I will like and subscribe

@@-tw5vk Thank you ou merci beaucoup! ☺️
I would say, lets start by fixing the road first.
The road situation is a lot bigger than just fixing the roads! To do that we need to first remove the corruption (if you know what I mean) and then solve the road problems.....
If I'd want to read for 28 min I wouldn't come to youtube !
Nice to see the city is back in business. However, I find that the height restriction is a joke and must be scrapped. Look at Toronto, they are building slim 90+ stories towers which are much better than wide and lower towers.
Great video, btw. :)
Thanks. The height restriction is absurd.
@@megaprojectsanddevelopments : affirmer cela prouve ton ignorance de l'histoire de la ville.
@@brayundia Bonjour Louis Poirier, Je sais que cette limite de hauteur existe pour que les gratte ciel ne surpasse pas le Mont Royal. Je comprend très bien le but. Mais de faire en sorte qu aucun édifices ne peut dépasser les 205 mètres est un peu ridicule à mes yeux. J aime les haut bâtiments et quelques édifices de 250 mètres embelliraient le skyline de la ville. Montréal a une population de 4 millions d habitants et des tours hautes sont nécessaires pour une telle métropole. Voilà mon opinion. Le Mont Royal ne serait pas défié du tout par des telles tours. Le Mont Royal est unique et il dominera toujours.
The height restriction in in place in order to prevent the view of the mountain from being blocked. That being said, I don't see a problem having 90+ story buildings further outside the downtown core.
Yes and it makes no sense. the Mount royal is 232m, it's a hill compared to what we can see in other countries. There is also a height restriction in Toronto, the council doesn't like towers above 300M but approve 50 at a height of around 200M. It makes no sense at all!

Actually, economy works a bit like nature; it doesn't like empty spaces. When big companies with big money moved to Toronto in the 70's, it created a void that needed to be filled. The scared English elite flew away and left the door openned to companies owned and operated by French Canadians. When Bank of Mtl and Royal Bank moved their headquarters to Toronto, Banque Nationale, Banque Laurentienne and Caisses Desjardins grabbed the opportunity to grow. When Sunlife ran away, other Quebec's insurance companies expended. Small and medium sized enterprises boomed and became international corporations like Bombardier and SNC Lavalin. So, yes, the separatist movement and the exodus of old English money really hurt not only Montreal but the entire provincial economy, but such big economy is like a big cruise boat; it cannot turn on a dime. It's normal that it took 40 years to get back in shape. An what is 40 years in the history of a country? A few days in man's life?
Saying that the separatism movement was bad for Montréal is like saying that ending segregation was bad for Chicago. It's much better to have a lower economy than having a stronger economy that only 10% of the population can enjoy. The hole province got better since then!
Separatism destroyed the economy of Quebec and sent that prosperity down the road to Toronto.
It is only because support for separation is so low now that international companies are willing to invest in Montreal again.
Nice attempt to spin the situation though.

@@tluagel You keep telling yourselves this bullshit like it's true. You're living in a bubble and can't see the real world that's outside. Since the support for separatism has been fading away, the economy is suddenly getting better. Nobody wants to invest in a place where there is uncertainty.
Markus S It’s not the fault of separation it’s the fault of stupid people scared about something that they shouldn’t be scared about
it really makes me wonder how Alberta and Saskatchewan will fair now they mentioning seceding from Canada, i keep hearing pole numbers close to 50%, will we start to see investments dry up and companies not wanting to risk developing there as well.

@Jacqueline Filo I wish we gonna indépendance or Canada kick us. We are the true canadians :) the english speaking people of canada are exactly the same like in USA.
@@Hugo-cn9no Americans that like hockey, maple syrup, and poutine (all the things we made, lol). What makes Canada different is Québec.
If they can fixed the homeless and roads it can be even better
Yeah the only problem : The increase in high rises is exactly the sort of thing that drives the housing cost dramatically. Just look at what's happening in Toronto and Vancouver. Moreover, buildings with actual architectural quality are very often demolished in order to be replaced by banal glass tower. I don't actually hate buildings, but those shown in the video could just be in any city. You want unique designs that are both ambitious and respectful of the city surrounding them and I don't feel like that's what's happening. And actually the first souverainiste government of René Lévesque was very good for the province's economy, with the creation of the Caisse de dépôts et placements du Québec and the Régie des rentes, among others. Though, the city was hit hard by the economic crisis of the 80s and neither the PQ nor the Liberals had a solution. So accusing the nationalist movement for Montreal's economic marasm of the 80's is actually not even true.
Excellent response, MERCI!!!!!
Its fun to see that as a Québécois its hard to see That kind of image On youtube and see How the projects and the City gonna looks Like
Montreal was the biggest city because its port was as far up-river as oceangoing ships could travel - until the St Lawrence Seaway opened in 1959. Unilingualism in 1977 didn't help either. But now it's bouncing back, and it's unquestionably the best value for money of any Canadian city. I'd move there in an eyeblink if I didn't have family and friends here in Toronto. And Toronto is pretty cool too, though housing is much pricier.
Sinon très belle vidéo...pardon !
Went to Montreal in the 90's and was ripped off at a restaurant in the old section of town . , still I loved the city . One other odd event happen at the Baseball park. They won't let you change assigned seats even when nobody shows up . Seats near the dugouts were empty the entire time , my son and I sat down around the seventh inning and were quickly removed.
MTLURB, meilleur forum
Nice video, but you are dreaming about the hyperloop. Never going to happen. First of all would be the cost involved. But mostly because the populations of the two cities could not sustain it. And lastly, being from Toronto, getting our government to support the project is a no go. As it is, Toronto is decades behind in building it's subway. Example - the downtown relief line.
Here we go again, TORONTO TORONTO TORONTO.....expensive, over built, ridiculous real estate prices, yep, TORONTO!!!!!.........sigh
C'est le fun voir Montréal prendre de l'ampleur, devenir de plus en plus belle, c'est ça être Montréalais: s'embelir dans le respect des autres, grandir dans la multiplicité et la diversité, vibrer à sa vue:)
merci beaucoup ! J'exprouve un amour inifni pour cette magnifique ville.
Les plus belles villes du monde sont pas nécessairement celles avec les plus grand nombres de gratte-ciels. Paris, Prague, Barcelone, Kyoto , Rome!
Your city may grow more and much faster IF you guys come to your sense and declare Montreal as an International city AND remove notorious Illegal Bill 101 for Montreal. This city has the potential to become the top city in North America.
Very nice graphics. Music is not good.
This video, despite it looking like it’s sharing facts and figures - is very misleading, and is based on politically-motivated themes. I would remind you that Québec City - the capital and a city of a million people in its area, which was also the seperatist heart of Québec for ages, went through the same building and post-war modernization boom with the rest of North America and Europe. Yes, the nationalist movement in Québec made quite a number of Anglophones leave Québec, but it wasn’t that that caused Montréal’s economic problems. Bad government, bad planning, olympic games that cost a fortune, and Toronto’s push to become Canada’s major city were to blame. If you want to make videos about a city’s history, at least get your facts right.
Quebec is easy, If a political party is doing something progressive, “vote ‘em out!” If they’re corrupt “4 more years”.
Proud to live in montreal canada
Montreal is wonderful.
@@megaprojectsanddevelopments certainly
@@anamsaleem4410 I will live there very soon. it's the best city in Canada.
@@megaprojectsanddevelopments where do you live?
Build more high rise apartments in Canada.
Montreal lost out to Toronto when they started that separatist shit. They will never overhaul Toronto . It was a ´self inflicted wound´, not fatal but highly debilitating .
Hanne Catton, better to be true to oneself, and remain a internationally recognized city, than to become the Chicago of Canada (i.e. Toronto). Just sayin... No offense Chicago!!
but the 75% of the population living out of Montreal became richer, its was a big win for French Quebecers
@@TheMatlemon After WWII you were mainly holding yourselves back. Even without your stupid separatist crap your people had the capacity to do better for themselves. Dropping out of high school at an early age only to work shitty jobs doesn't get you very far.
Réseau express Montréal et non réseau électrique Montréal
22:05 the ''futuristic airport of 2030'' looks just like a random underground train station (metro) in Stockholm in 2018. We're not gonna catch up anytime soon.
Engriue8 you made me smile thank you
And they say thers no work in montreal
Great job and info, but please be careful of your camera shots it was too dizzing to watch, oh ya, you have a lot of English spelling and grammar mistakes, this is a great reference tool, and will be watched by many countries, just be more careful, overall great job
Very nice video except one thing, leave the hyperloop out of this list, it has, sadly, very little to do with reality and I would be extremely surprised if a single hyperloop is ever built, let alone one in Montreal.
Thank you ou merci !
@@megaprojectsanddevelopments Pas 'd trouble.
The economique growth of Toronto has nothing to do with Québécois wanting to separate, it's the digging of the saint Laurence seaway that allowed business to grow in Toronto. Second, you are saying that Canada's declaring war measure is irrelevant, that happening in 1969 and the référendum happened in 1981. 12 years apart. You need to go hack to your history books.
Holla at me 🇯🇲🇨🇦 Akeem wealthy people.
just skip to 10:41 to see the future mega projects
What is the first music in the video?
